The cordless elements IC obturation system combines a Downpack heat source with a Backfill extruder. The Downpack device provides fast heating of the heat plugger with precisely controlled temperature and timing, making it suitable for single-motion downpack obturation of the apical portion of the root canal. Utilizing single-use gutta-percha cartridges, the ergonomic Backfill device has a motorized extruder system for precise temperature and speed control for a 3-dimensional obturation of the root canal system.
An assembly of devices intended to be used during endodontic treatment involving root canal obturation procedures. It may be used in a variety of modes, e.g., to provide continuous heat to the tip of a dental instrument to test tooth response to thermal stimulus, for tissue cauterization and coagulation, and to backfill and down pack gutta-percha during endodontic root canal treatment or root canal obturation. It typically consists of a mains electricity (AC-powered) generator that regulates an electrical current used to produce resistive heat via the handpieces for the application of the heat, or extrude gutta-percha during a root canal obturation.
